The most detailed and complete course on the application of BJJ for STREET SELF-DEFENSE. This practical course surpasses all the other ones I have purchased on the subject. It is probably the only program you would need. Excellent job.

Systematic approach

A very good series. It is not accumulation of random techniques but a systematic approach that gives you a self defense gameplan against the most common unarmed attacks. The focus on biting defense especially on the ground is pretty refreshing too.

BJJ for Self Defense

This is an incredible series and should be the first BJJ video you ever watch. Simple yet effective techniques and a realistic approach to real world self defense. This is not the classic "Chair defense stuff" which never works but solid Grappling techniques for all kind of self defense situations. The Krav Maga of BJJ I would say.
